La Clase

The classroom is a space for learning. Learning happens in many ways and a teacher is constantly trying to get to every child: How does this boy/girl learn best? What activities should we do? How do I make sure that they learn to speak/to write/to read in Spanish? How do I make connections with the curriculum in their other classrooms? How do I teach culture in the target language? These are all the questions that are behind the configuration of the Spanish classroom as a physical space. Take a look at the slideshow to your right. Do you like the new rug? The children LOVE it and so do I!
